K, so right now I am really mad, my hand is all cut up and I accomplished nothing. I was trying to swap out my pump on the ps which I believe is blown with a spare. Koyo is too thick so the hinge bolt doesnt come out. The hole in the pulley is too small for a socket to fit in and remove the bolts so I had to use a crescent wrench a 1/4 turn at a time. Since I couldnt remove the hinge bolt I had to take off the bracket from the engine. So the part holding me up now is the banjo bolts. For some reason some genius at Nissan thought it would be funny to make the top bolt one size and the black nut on the bottom slightly bigger. So I wasted my money on a 24mm wrench only to find that it only fit the top part. Does anybody know exactly what size the bottom is? 25 or 26? So I am assuming I hold the top in place while i spin just the black nut at the bottom is that right?

Once I get this taken apart I think I am going to install an elimination hose because this system is nothing but problems.

27mm for the bottom front and 24mm for the bottom rear. Hold the bottom and turn the top is what I've always found easiest.
